备注	Georgia's 1863 fiscal position was deteriorating faster than its treasury could manage. By mid-war the state was printing its own obligations partly because Confederate currency had begun losing credibility with the public, and partly because Georgia's legislature needed instruments that could compel local tax and debt payments without depending on Richmond's monetary apparatus. Howell of Savannah was a regional printer working under genuine material constraints — quality engraving stock, inks, and skilled labor were all blockade-scarce by 1863. The registration stamp served as the primary anti-counterfeiting measure, a thin line of defense given how widely Confederate and state issues were being forged across the South by that point.
